It is also important to note that the area we walk in covers several acres of property so that there is lots of room for stretching legs. All dogs are leashed well before we return to the road to have treats and return home.

• ID Tags are placed on your dog with our cell phone number before each walk
• The cell phone is carried on all off-leash walks
• Medical kit on-hand.

Pricing

• Price $17.00, $3.00 for each additional dog (plus HST)

Experience

I have been running my playgroup since 2000 and have taken care of all sizes and breeds of dogs. I strongly believe that every time you come in to contact with a dog you are in some way training it - for better or worse. I also believe that dogs train you just as much as you train them.

I truly understand the love these creatures give to the humans in their lives. After all they are just like children. My priority is the safety and well-being of these family members. Because of this I am very thorough in the interview process before taking dogs in to my off-leash playgroup. With more than 8 years of experience I have become very good at telling which dogs will fit in with the other current group dogs.

Want to see the group for yourself to help you decide? I encourage all prospective clients to come out for a walk with us and see all the fun we have for yourself.

Requirements

In order to join the playgroup, your dog should meet the following requirements:

• Your dog must be a Medium or Large breed. For safety reasons we do not take little dogs. Also there are some medium and large breed exclusions that are in place. Breed restrictions are in place because I want to ensure that all of my group dogs return home to their families happy and safe.
  .
• If your dog is over the age of 3, he or she should have some off-leash experience fairly good recall (comes back when called).
  .
• Dogs less than 3 years of age, but over 6 months, are welcome as long as they are spayed or neutered.
  (Work will be done on recall for dogs of this age.)
  .
• All standard shots and medications are up-to-date.
  .
• Your dog gets along with most other dogs and enjoys running with a pack*
  .
• Your dog is basically people-friendly*

We are a pack of dogs that run without pack mentality.  For the owner this means that when you take your dog on an off-leash walk they behave appropriately when approaching other dogs.

*
This is not to say that because your pet may have some minor 'issues' that your dog is unwelcome in the group. Some examples of these issues are

• Does your dog like to sniff a lot? (taking his time on a stroll)
• Does your dog sometimes bark at people without dogs?
• Is your dog a little rough with other dogs?

I have been successful in correcting these types of behavior.

If you feel that your dog has more challenging problems, we can discuss these and see what can be done to correct the behavior.
